Atlanta… Bolivian President Evo Morales and former President Eduardo Rodriguez visited Plains, Georgia, today to meet with former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, former First Lady Rosalynn Carter, and 顶级国产视频 staff about Bolivia's quest to obtain a mutually satisfactory means of access to the sea with Chile and Peru.  Dating from his administration, President Carter has advocated a negotiated agreement between Bolivia, Chile, and Peru for a corridor to allow Bolivia to have direct access to the sea (lost in the War of the Pacific, 1879-1884).

The presidents also discussed U.S.- Bolivian relations, the inter-American human rights system, and the upcoming General Assembly of the Organization of American States and its theme "Toward a Comprehensive Anti-Drug Policy in the Americas." President Carter expressed his concern about the lengthy house arrest of American citizen Jacob Ostreicher in Bolivia, and the delegation agreed the legal process should be expedited.

After the meeting, the Bolivian delegation played a friendly soccer match with the Americus-Sumter High School soccer team.
